ARTICLES

2004 to 2008
COLUMN, MARCH 2008:
  CARPAL TUNNEL SYNDROME. This month (March) I have added something a little more serious to my columns' concept.
I explored natural medicine for the relief of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. If you suffer from this problem, you might like to try some of the available remedies.

COLUMN, FEBRUARY 2008:
My two new publications are on the road. Shown to the right is the cover of my Photo publication, about the mysteries of earth and arts, people and places.
I also pubished a major work, which took me three years. That work, described in this article is about religion and interfaith concepts.

IRISES: I added some newer photos and also some relevant links to my Irises article recently(for links, text-only: iristext.htm). I am linked to Quebec, Canada (French) and to Czechoslovakia (in Czech!)Who is right? Which is the most wild and or medicinal of the varieties of Bearded iris (Iris versicolor)?


CATS CLAW

Cats' Claw (uncaria tomentosa, is an herb found in the Tropical Rainforests of South America. Studies in the last half of the century confirm that this herb has qualities which earn for it the terms "noble", and "world-class".

CINQUEFOIL

A fairly quiet herb, which has never caught my eye, cinquefoil demanded that I give it some attention by plonking itself in my herb garden.

 

HAREBELL

The delightful, shy and hard-to find little bell has always filled me with a sense of wonder. The flowers homeopathic properties are elusive on the net, as well.

Autumn Crocus

I decided to research Autumn Crocus because I wanted to plant this herb in my garden. Colchicum does produce a medicine, but it really is poisonous.Worth reading...the image to the left is from the net, but I couldn't find the museum site from which it was saved. It is entitled "Autumn",(I added the crocuses).
